Starting with the 64GB Wi-Fi M1 iPad Air, Best Buy has this model for $399.99, down from $599.99. This is an all-time low price on this model of the 2022 iPad Air, and it's available in three colors. You'll also find the 256GB Wi-Fi iPad Air on sale for $499.99, down from $749.99, which is about $50 cheaper than the previous record low price.



Apple introduced new M2 iPad Air models in May, which is why we're seeing steep discounts on the previous generation models more often. You can still save a bit of money on the 2024 models if you're interested in owning the latest version.

Best Buy's Black Friday in July event has much more on sale than just the iPad Air, including other Apple products like MacBooks and Apple Watches. You can also find great deals on TVs, video games, appliances, headphones, smartphones, sound bars, streaming devices, computers, and much more.

This must be because the economy is doing SO well, right?
This is not a reflection of the current economic situation. Amazon helped further turn July into sort of a "Black Friday" sales month back in 2015 with its first Prime Day event. "Christmas in July" sales had also been going on even before that. These types of sales have occurred in both good and bad economic periods.

Good price for the 64GB provided that so much storage is enough.
